Michelle,
Is there a fix for this -- or ... what needs to be fixed? This will become
more and more of a problem as Gtk+ apps move from Gtk+2 to Gtk+3 and disable
support for Gtk+2 themes.
My question is why should an application care if both the Gtk+2 and Gtk+3
TDE kconfig engine options are set for each to use TDE colors, fonts, etc...?
The application will either be Gtk+2 or Gtk+3, but not both.
I'll admit I'm not up to speed on the issue, but I build several package
that rely on Gtk+2 and some with Gtk+3 (with the option to enable which to use
through the Makefile or .spec).
I can see why an app wouldn't want to be told twice "Hey use this set of
colors/fonts, then again no-wait use this set...", but that shouldn't happen
as the app with either be one or the other. What does that mean for TDE where
there will still be a mix of Gtk+2 apps and Gtk+3 apps installed?
